Our custom programs have been a feature of the NewZeal offering for years. Time again, we see individuals excel in self-discovery, and teams flourish with newfound empowerment in identifying and using their strengths.

About
adventure Philosophy

Talks, Workshops
& Retreats

Adventure Philosophy empowers individuals and teams to reach their fullest potential, blending authenticity, warmth, and a deep understanding of human experience. Through talks, workshops, and retreats, these programs inspire and energize participants, fostering lasting impressions. Centered on the concept of 'Adventure Philosophy,' they encourage embracing uncertainty, risk, and boldness in everyday life—key qualities that are vital in both business and personal growth. This approach builds resilience, wellbeing, confidence, teamwork, and personal leadership. With thought-provoking exercises, discussions, and activities, Adventure Philosophy challenges participants to develop actionable strategies for a more adventurous mindset, tailored to support both individual development and team cohesion. Each session is designed to align with specific goals, promoting personal insights and powerful "a-ha" moments that resonate well beyond the workplace.

What
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT FROM A WORKSHOP?

Completely tailor-made, endorphin-releasing team exercises, and insightful and relatable seminars. This can look like learning outcomes gained through achievable challenges such as arrow or board breaking. It could even include taking a helicopter into the deep south for a half/full day getaway, or spending the night glamping under the stars with your team.

​

On a River's Edge Retreat, experience exhilarating, yet achievable, activities alongside gourmet cuisine and the finest local beverages, all woven into a two day journey toward pre-set motivational outcomes.

​

During Paul's Keynote Speeches and seminars, expect honest and open dialogue and team discussion, interwoven with stories from Paul's own experiences, as well as experiential elements that create greater focus and produce those insightful 'aha' moments.

When
IS THERE A BEST TIME TO DO A WORKSHOP?

Group adventures are available all-year round (summer, spring, autumn and winter). However, the activities will differ depending on the season.

​

Seminars and workshops can be held inside or outside, so are available all year round. An overnight experience like our River's Edge retreat is not advised in mid-Winter. However, flexible options for accommodation would allow for a Winter two day retreat. Get in touch for more info.
